Long summary: Demetria Courtney never knew she had a twin. She never would have, if it hadn't been for the invasion. She never would have, if Hal Mason had never rescued her from the skitter's grasp, mistaking her for his beloved girlfriend. And she never would have met him, never would've dealt with his anger and almost hatred toward her. If only she hadn't been Karen Nadler's twin, she wouldn't have ever lived her life. She wouldn't know that something horrible was coming, something that would eclipse the aliens themselves. She wouldn't come back alive, find her place in the world as it is now, and fall in love just in time for it to all fall apart.
